Beef production for small farms : an overview

Creator:: Oregon State University. Extension Service, Pirelli, Gene J., Weedman-Gunkel, Shirlee, and Weber, Dale William
Abstract:: Beef production is a large and important segment of American agriculture and one of the largest industries in the world. Beef enterprises work well with grain, orchard, vegetable, or other crop operations. Cattle can make efficient use of feed resources that have little alternative use, such as crop residues, marginal...

Influence of stocking density on grazing beef cattle performance, diet composition foraging efficiency, and diet quality on a late-spring early-summer native bunchgrass prairie

Creator:: Wyffels, Samuel A.
Abstract:: This study evaluated the influence of cattle stocking density on botanical composition of diet, diet preference, and cattle performance on the Zumwalt Prairie in Northeastern Oregon. In each of two years, 192 cow-calf pairs (549.27 kg, BCS = 4.89) and 48 yearling heifers (383.34 kg, BCS = 5.02) were stratified...

Daily vs alternate day supplementation of soybean meal or wheat middlings to steers consuming low quality hay

Creator:: Shirley, Tyson R.
Abstract:: Two experiments were conducted to determine the effects of daily (D) vs alternate day (AD) supplementation of soybean meal (SBM) or wheat middlings (WM) on forage organic matter intake (OMI), ruminal digesta kinetics, total tract digestibility, and ADG of steers consuming low quality forage. In Exp. 1, five Angus x...

Effects of forage quality and type of protein supplement on intake and digestibility in beef steers and performance of postpartum beef cows

Creator:: White, Jenny J.
Abstract:: Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of forage quality and supplemental undegradable intake protein (UIP) level on intake, digestibility, and performance of beef cattle. In Exp. 1, five ruminally cannulated steers (BW = 456 ± 6 kg) were used in a 6 x 5 incomplete Latin square with...

Factors influencing diet composition of beef cattle grazing mixed conifer mountain riparian areas

Creator:: Darambazar, Enkhjargal
Abstract:: Two trials were conducted to evaluate changes in the quantity, quality, and moisture of available forage in the pasture, and shrub utilization by cattle during a 30-d late summer grazing period (Trial 1) and the effect of cow age (experience) on grazing distribution and diet composition (Trial 2) in mountain...

The effects of copper supplementation and breed on milk fatty acid profile

Creator:: Sumner, Jennifer M.
Abstract:: An experiment was conducted to determine the effect of dietary copper (Cu) on Cu status and lipid metabolism in Holstein and Jersey cattle. Eight Jersey and8 Holstein cows in mid-lactation were blocked by days in milk (169 ± 37) and assigned at random to one of two diets. Cows received...

Temperature influences on cattle distribution and behavior in the central California foothills

Creator:: Smith, Kelly Ryan
Abstract:: The effect of temperature on cattle behavior and distribution was studied in the foothills of California. To accurately understand changes in livestock behavior and distribution, five seasonal trials, each spanning three to four weeks were conducted beginning spring 2004 and ending spring 2005. The two spring trials and the fall...

The effects of timber harvest and herbivory on understory vegetation and composition of beef cattle diets on forested rangelands

Creator:: Walburger, Kenric J.
Abstract:: The objectives of the experiment were to: 1) determine the relationship between overstory canopy cover and ungulate herbivory on understory production composition and diversity and 2) determine the effects of timber harvest, ungulate herbivory and season of use on botanical composition and nutritional quality of beef cattle diets. Three randomly...
